 | Madame Gautreau c. 1883 | 
From: Fogg Art Museum
"In
this bold drawing, characteristic of Sargent's hand, the differentiation of
texture and tone has been accomplished by varying both the pressure and the
direction of the strokes. Sargent has used the same pencil throughout the
composition. The area of white chalk on the back of the sofa was probably used
to... | GA | igrkio |

A very
similar painting of one he did for her earlier. Possibly she had someone that
liked the first so much she might have requested another.

 | Landscape View Near Nice c. 1883-1884 Private Collection Unknown, USA |

The
landscape surrounding Nice is one of hills, canyons and rivers. Painted from
1883 to 1884, Landscape View Near Nice depicts a hilly town [I'm not sure it's

fresh and original approach to plein air painting. A rich mix of color,
textures and... | GA | igrkio |

Little is
known about the painting. Apparently the name was taken from the Knoedler
gallery records (one of the owners in the chain of title) which sources the previous owner for the
information.
